@DerekjAndersen @Divotdotorg @DavidSpinks This is genuinely one of my favorite podcasts I’ve listened to in a while. I did not know David before this listen. His wisdom found me at just the right time. I feel like I’ve been trying to teach my self and my kids they are enough.

This week on @Divotdotorg I interviewed @DavidSpinks, author of The Business of Belonging and one of the world's biggest experts on building community. We talked about success, loneliness, ambition, why high performers often feel inadequate, and if making a dent in the universe is worth the cost.

@mhp_guy People like your wife are just the best to know. This is amazing. I am convinced all 13 of her friends who are going will talk about this for years to come and "wish they did something like this too." anyways, happy B-day mhp_gal

to be clear, I know the location, as do my kids. it was only a secret from her friends.

My wife’s 40th birthday is tomorrow. She’s taking 13 friends to the airport as I type this, to a surprise location that only she knows. She’s been planning for 9 months and she LOVES stuff like this. We met at 13 & have been married for almost 18 amazing years. She’s the best!

@Champaign_Room Love what you guys do. This season was especially good. Most of us don’t get to stay in Chambana. You kept me feeling connected all year.

Thank you to everyone who has followed or read our work at TCR this athletic season. It's been a helluva athletic year, and it's an honor we don't take lightly to cover these programs. ILL.

@MrAzSports He seems like such a cool dude. Boy I sure hope he doesn’t end up on the Dodgers. I’d hate to have to root against him.

Did you know the Arizona Diamondbacks drafted Tarik Skubal?

@elonmusk Hope this helps. youtu.be/9kn7E-OauJI?si…

Stand By Me

@PHNX_Dbacks Depends. How do you feel about harry hugging Voldemort?

Should we like this? Or is it disgusting?

@hankrsmith Far be it from me to start rumors, but I hear they pay him in no. 10 can drink mix and potato pearls.

So help me if Bytheway is getting paid and I’m not…

@IJustDoItForThe @Manhattva Those no 10 cans of beans have done good for me in my life.

@MitchAll2gether @Manhattva I would be so down for some free Bishop storehouse food!

How do I get a hold of some of these sweet Mormon bux?

@CoachDanGo Host a club. E.g. my wife does sewing club. Invites girls from 10 to 14.

People who homeschool their children: What do you do for socialization and helping your kids develop a friend group?

@DougHaller Such a great shot. When you grow up in the valley of the sun you almost forget how awesome desert mountains are.

Beautiful

@sterlingmsnow This is such sound advice. Today I had a day where I kind of wanted to sell it all and live in a tiny home and hide today. Then I looked at my wife and kids and people who work for me. Keeps me progressing.

Responsibility is the best thing you can have. Responsibility is like gravity. If you don’t have it you just float. Have family responsibilities. People who depend on you. Have work responsibilities. Team that depends on you. Outcome that you own. Community responsibilities. Literal things you’re over that make your square of the world better. Seek to have more responsibility and to become capable of exceeding the expectations. If you haven’t upped your dose of responsibility in awhile. Do.

@FriosPopsGuy I needed this reminder today, man. I’ve got my own version of that at home. Thanks for sharing, Cliff!

Here is the quickest way to get fired at Frios. Erase this off my whiteboard. My daughter drew this years ago, and it’s been there ever since. It’s now become very important to me, and it’s a reminder to be happy when days are tough.

@FriosPopsGuy It actually is so awesome. Only made better when there are active animals to watch.

Being outside when the sun comes up will never get old.

@ErikRuby @PHNX_Suns @BucksPlusAudio If this is true, and I don’t know why it wouldn’t be, we all owe Earl a debt of gratitude.

“If you trade Devin Booker, I’m resigning tonight.” Earl Watson told @BucksPlusAudio that he stopped Robert Sarver from trading Devin Booker for Jimmy Butler 😳

@sterlingmsnow That’s where I am at. I’m trying to figure out how to drink in every minute of being a dad of kids coming of age.

@MitchAll2gether Maybe not better just different?

Sincere question for those with older kids. Does it get better than this? If so, how? Actually scared it can’t get any better and this is peak.

@FriosPopsGuy This is so unbelievably cool. Seriously. One of the really cool things about this product. Is it simple enough? I bet my eight year-old could handle it. It’s not like they have to figure out unlimited product customization.

Frios is family. We have franchisees who have their kids riding shotgun to events. They get to teach them customer service, sales, and entrepreneurship. It's teaching them work ethic. You can't do that from a desk. This is a business you do with your kids.

@SleeperDbacks Man the comments on that original thread are so funny. Can’t believe it has been 10 years.

10 years ago today:
